After Jian Si Ning moved out of the military compound overnight, she did not stay in a hotel, but went directly to a small courtyard in the north of the city a few stops away from the military compound.
Neither Jian's parents nor Huo Shizhou knew that before her grandmother died, she had sold the house in her hometown town and bought her a small courtyard here.
The yard is divided into east and west rooms, with a total of four rooms, a kitchen and a separate toilet.
There is a big persimmon tree in the middle of the yard. When Jian Sining and his grandmother came to see this yard a few months ago, they fell in love with this yard because of the persimmon tree.
Grandma knew that Jian Si Ning was not liked by her parents, and that she was old and didn't know how many more years she could protect her, so she simply gave up the old home where she had lived for decades and bought a small courtyard in this city for her granddaughter.
Grandma said that if a girl married the wrong man, she would have no home. She hoped that this small courtyard could become Jian Sining's retreat.
The old lady would never have dreamed that her foresight would be verified so quickly.
The yard had not been occupied for a long time. She came over a month ago and did a simple cleanup, but it was already covered in dust.
That night she simply cleaned up a room, cleaned the bunk bed, and spread the quilt she brought as a dowry on it, and stayed there for the night, then cleaned it carefully the next day.
After dawn, the morning light shone into the bedroom through the window.
Jian Si Ning still had a lot of work to do today, so he immediately got up from the bed.
She came to the yard, washed up by the laundry trough under the kitchen window, and decided to go out for breakfast. After eating, she would go buy some wood and ask a craftsman to make a few boxes, a large wardrobe, a dining table, and a cabinet.
In addition, she also needs to go to the department store to buy some necessary daily necessities.
Fortunately, these days, by slapping those crazy people in the face, she has saved up a huge sum of over 6,000 yuan through system point rewards.
With this money, it would be no problem to buy a warm home...
On the other side, Huo Shizhou finished his breakfast with dark circles under his eyes, and finally asked about Jian Si Ning's whereabouts.
"Where did she go? Did she cry on the street all night last night?"
Xiao Zhao avoided his gaze, lowered her head slightly and tried not to laugh: "Comrade Jian seems to be doing well. She had breakfast at a state-owned breakfast shop this morning and is now going shopping at the department store."
Huo Shizhou couldn't believe his ears. He raised his eyes and locked them on Xiao Zhao, "Are you serious?"
"It's absolutely true. Comrade Jian bought a courtyard in the north of the city a long time ago. He is now busy decorating it, but he didn't think of you at all..."
"Bang——" Huo Shizhou couldn't help but throw the chopsticks, his chest heaving violently with anger.
"I really underestimated her. She dared to go out and live her life, didn't she? She's capable of that!"
"Captain, why don't you surrender to Comrade Jian? Then maybe she will come back," Xiao Zhao suggested bravely.
Huo Shizhou roared, "I'm going to give in to her? Is she worthy?" A fierce look flashed across the man's eyes, "I must make her cry and beg me..."
After Jian Si Ning found a carpenter and ordered the furniture he wanted, he went there with his newly bought pots, pans, and cleaning tools.
Today's goal is to clean the whole house and then tidy up the kitchen.
Today the weather was fine, so she first tied a clothesline in the yard and took the quilt out to dry.
Then put on gloves and a straw hat to protect against dust, and start cleaning the cobwebs on the roof, and then the lime walls.
With this sweep, a layer of lime fell down with a clang. She then realized that the wall and the wood on the roof had oxidized, and some parts of the wall were moldy due to water seepage.
She doesn't like living in a leaky and moldy house, so it looks like it needs some renovation.
She remembered that the father of one of Lu Mianmian's classmates was a bricklayer, so she decided to ask Lu Mianmian for help in making the connection.
